For non-hazardous locations
The SA-220NH is a fixed gas detector built for non-hazardous ambient-air applications. It pairs a full-color TFT display with plug-and-play SA2 smart sensor modules, so the detector automatically reads gas type, sensitivity range, and serial number at startup. ABS or aluminum housing options, a magnetic interface, and optional Bluetooth configuration through the OpCheck app make it a practical choice for commercial and light industrial installations where hazardous-area certification is not required.
One non-hazardous platform.
The SA-220NH shares the same SA2 smart-sensor core, full-color display, and digital interface as the SA-220 — in an ABS or aluminum housing built for non-hazardous locations.
SA-220NH Gas Detector
Non-hazardous fixed gas detector in ABS or aluminum housing. Single SA2 smart sensor configuration, full-color TFT display, magnetic interface, and optional Bluetooth configuration.
- ABS or aluminum housing for non-hazardous locations
- Single SA2 smart sensor configuration
- Modbus RTU & 4-20 mA output
- Optional relay and Bluetooth output
Intelligence at the sensor, clarity at a glance.
The SA-220NH collapses the traditional transmitter-and-sensor stack into one non-hazardous unit. Auto-identification, local event logging, and a high-visibility status ring give operators immediate situational awareness without extra wiring layers.
Fewer failure points
No transmitter-to-sensor wiring loop, no junction box translation layer. Two devices become one hardened unit.
Field-friendly service
Magnetic interface, Bluetooth configuration, and plug-and-play SA2 modules make calibration and replacement straightforward.
Intelligence at the source
Diagnostics, event logging, and status data are captured at the sensor - not interpreted second-hand by a separate box.
Read the room from across the plant.
High Visibility, High Resolution TFT display with a full LED status ring to clearly show readings and detector state. No squinting at a 4-20mA panel from a distance.
User Configurable Alarm Levels
Built-in intelligence, field-ready.
Bluetooth (OpCheck) app
Pair and configure sensor, detector, alarms, and run Bump, Zero Cal and Span Cal tests from an Android or iOS phone.
Last 10 Events
10 event logs held on the device - every alarm, fault, and configuration change captured locally.
GPS location tagging
Capture GPS on device to support site monitoring and continuous leak issues.
Device tagging and serialization
Tag the device with a specific location and/or ID for reference on monitoring map or SCADA system. Leverage serialization for traceability for both sensor and detector.

Frequently asked questions
Is the SA-220NH rated for hazardous locations?
No. The SA-220NH is designed specifically for non-hazardous locations and is available in ABS or aluminum enclosures. For hazardous-area requirements, see the SA-220 Industrial Gas Detector or contact Safeguard Analytics at 936-342-2300 to review the right model for your application.
What is the SA-220NH designed for?
The SA-220NH is the non-hazardous-area version of the SA-220, built for ambient-air monitoring points outside classified zones in commercial and light industrial facilities.
What gases does the SA-220NH detect?
The SA-220NH uses the same plug-and-play SA2 smart sensor modules as the SA-220 family, covering combustible gases (%LEL), H2S, CO, O2, NH3, Cl2, CO2 and more.
What is the SA-220NH's temperature rating?
-40 °C to +60 °C (-40 °F to +140 °F), matching the hazardous-rated SA-220.
